Mercedes-Benz C Class: Seats and Restraints

Affects Mercedes-Benz C Class · 2018 — about 377 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain coupe and cabriolet models, the switches that detect if a seat belt is buckled may not function properly. This could cause a buckled seat belt to be incorrectly detected as unbuckled. In the event of a crash, this could cause the seat belt tensioning system not to work as designed, increasing the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the affected seat belt buckles.
